Troubled Hollywood star Amanda Bynes is now reportedly undergoing psychiatric treatment at the UCLA Medical Center.
The 27-year-old actress was transferred on Thursday from the psych hospital in Ventura County to the famed Los Angeles psychiatric facility where Britney Spears was also treated in 2008, RadarOnline.com confirmed.
Bynes is believed to have been spotted climbing into a black SUV outside the Ventura, Calif., mental hospital wearing a bright blue cap or wig on her head and a pair of white socks without shoes. She was also draped in a white sheet that blocked her face. [See photo.]
She began receiving mental treatment at the Hillman Psychiatric Center in Ventura County on July 22 after she was placed on an involuntarily hold after starting a campfire in a stranger's driveway. Since then, a judge extended her stay at the mental facility to 30 days so that doctors could to keep watch over her. According to sources, Bynes is being treated for schizophrenia.
The "Hairspray" star has been placed under two temporary conservatorships. The first was a mental health conservatorship that was sought by her doctors and allows caregivers to keep her in a locked facility and force her to take medication. It is expected to run at least through the first week of September, reports the New York Daily News.
A probate conservatorship was also requested by Bynes' mother, Lynn, who was granted control of her daughter's financial and personal affairs. As the probate conservator, Lynn also has the power to decide where Amanda lives and receives medical care outside of lockdown.
